Mother

Ode to the mother who is so kind who’s beauty and gospel light always shine. The mother that I love so dear always does the wash The mother that I love so dears loves the kitchen store called Bosch. Mother, I don’t know if you remember the time you once told me, that I would always be your baby as long as you were taller; Believe me Mom that is not quiet fair you always knew I would be smaller. I never told you how brave and strong you are to me. Mother I first noticed your strength when grandma left this earth I know how much it hurt you, I know how much you cried. The sorrow that burdened your heart always burdened mine But the thing that I remember most was how I felt inside I’d thought that I had lost her forever, Mom, I thought life would never be the same. But then I looked into your eyes and that’s were I lost my pain. I knew she wasn’t lost because her and you are the same, as long as you’re my Mommy and forever with me you remain. I hope one day Mother that I shine the way you do, with the glory of God inside you and a little bit of grandma too. Your beauty is more than outward appearance, it’s what’s on the inside I love. You always put up with me, you always seem to care, So Mother I know I’m not perfect and I can be a grouch, But I know that you love me, and that’s what really counts. I don’t know why you chose me, but I know why I chose you Because God believed that you would lead me back to him and would keep me close to you. I could not be more proud of the mother you are to me. So thank you Mom for being the mother I want to be, I hope one day you will know how much you will always mean to me.
